Casting Call: The Entity

In which we suggest who should star in the next big adaptation, remake, or historical film.

Can a horror film be just a horror film if it is based on a real account? Originally released in 1983, The Entity follows Carla Moran (real name Doris Bither), a single mother who claims to have been sexually assaulted by a poltergeist. With the encouragement of her friend Cindy, Carla enlists the help of a skeptical psychologist, Dr. Schniederman. As the attacks continue, parapsychologists intervene and attempt to trap the poltergeist.

The Hollywood Reporter announced that James Wan (TheConjuring, Insidious, Saw) is set to co-produce the remake of The Entity with Roy Lee (Shutter, The Grudge, The Ring), with Chad and Carey Hayes (The Conjuring, House of Wax) writing the script. Such a reputable team deserves a stellar cast—click through the slideshow above to see which actors we think are up to the job.
